**CW Contracts**

New breakthroughs in Cricket Web cricket with the establishment of contracts for players within the system. Previously managed separately, the CWBCC has now ensured better control over the players by comfirming them in their employ. The contracts will be a season in length and give the selected players job security and communicate a higher likelihood of international selection.

A pool of 20 players will be contracted each season. Of those, 15 will be fully contracted and 5 will receive secondary contracts. Those with secondary contracts will be watched by selectors and play as much Dev League cricket as is possible.

The CWBCC does however reserve the right to terminate any contract on the basis of disciplinary action or constant injury. Please note that players not given contracts are still eligible for selection.

The centrally contracted players will be carefully managed by the CWBCC and the amount of non-international cricket played will be regulated to avoid major injury. Any contracted player wishing to participate in County Cricket or Grade Cricket or otherwise during the offseason must apply for and receieve a permit from the CWBCC.
